Katelyn, I regard you as a national treasure and a personal one, since I rely on you above all other sources for guidance for me and my family in coping with covid. Among the things I prize about YLE are the clarity with which you present abstruse data and also the objectivity. In our painfully polarized moment, it is not only refreshing but also reassuring to find presentation of information free of any hint of a political agenda. It pains me that this post, obviously written mostly by your partners, has a different tone. The title refers to the "culture war," and the tone and substance of the whole thing suggests a thrust from one side in that war. I wish you would avoid partnering with others who may be credentialed but lack your exemplary objectivity. Love you, too,
Thanks so much for this constructive feedback. I strongly believe that science communication and advocacy should be different. I can see where this blurs the line. Framing is a big part of it. I’ll get better. Thanks again!
Thank you, Katelyn. I, too, have the question about how the nitrous dioxide affects adults. Also, is there any difference between natural gas and propane? Lyn
